"Devin has done work for us in the past and is always on-time and does great work within our budget. We recently had some power issues and he came over as soon as we called. After doing some investigating he determined the issue and we couldn't be happier. We will continue to use Current Electric."

"Yuri discussed the issue over the phone and described the steps needed to correct the problem. I sent photos of the breaker panel so he could confirm what we had installed. We agreed on a time, he arrived exactly on time and had everything done quickly and efficiently for the price we discussed. His price was reasonable and what I would’ve expected. Plus he’s a nice person. I will definitely use him the next time I need work done."

"I'm so glad we went with JM Electric to replace/upgrade our electrical panel. They were fast, efficient, professional, courteous, and above all gave great advice. They even installed my husband's new garage heater after installing the designated electrical wire for it. I have no clue as to what or where the wires go beyond the outlets themselves. I just mentioned what we needed, Josh and Zach explained everything prior and handled everything on installation day. Definitely will be hiring them again if we ever need more electrical work. Thanks again JM Electric! (Josh and Zach)"

He’s my go to guy for electrical issues and he even helped with troubleshooting my solar panels issue when another company messed up my install from two years ago. I didnt even know it but he caught it and fixed it. Super impressed."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Golden, CO

Yes, a licensed electrician is essential for this project. Running an electrical service from the road to your house involves connecting to utility power lines, complying with national and local electrical codes, and safely handling high-voltage systems. 

Licensed professionals understand proper wire sizing, grounding requirements, and voltage drop calculations needed for safe installation. Most jurisdictions require permits and inspections that only certified professionals can obtain. The safety risks and potential for property damage make this project inappropriate for DIY attempts.

Overhead installations are less expensive than underground options. For a 1000-foot run, overhead service costs between $8,000 and $15,000, while underground service ranges from $10,000 to $25,000. 

Overhead lines require less labor and fewer materials since they don't need trenching or conduit. However, underground lines offer better protection from weather events and aesthetic benefits. Your decision should balance your budget constraints with long-term reliability and visual preferences.

You might need to upgrade your electrical panel depending on your power requirements. If your existing panel cannot handle the additional load from the extended service, upgrading to a 200-amp service (costing $750 to $2,000) may be necessary. 

A licensed electrician can evaluate your current system and determine if an upgrade is required. Factors include what you'll be powering at the end of the line, existing electrical demand, and whether voltage drop over the distance will affect performance.

Running electric service from the road to a house requires electrical permits from your local building department, costing between $500 and $2,000 depending on your location. You may also need excavation permits for trenching work if installing an underground service. Your utility company will have its own application process for connecting to its grid. A licensed electrical contractor can handle all the necessary permit applications as part of their service, ensuring your installation meets all local code requirements.
